Had a game yesterday, awful, AWFUL weather. It literally hammered it down hard for 90 minutes, how on earth the surface held up I do not know. I had in back of mind, this could be abandoned if the pitch holds the water. It was one of those games where one side were hell bent on arguing on...

Nice, I have ordered a few.

Surrey FA annual event this evening, looking forward to it!

Sometimes an assistant would not have as good as a view as the referee. It would have all be pre-planned, i.e. lots of eye contact, if you are not sure look at my hand, the reason so the signal is the same. It looks very tidy I agree, also it takes out the awkward moment, neither are sure who...

Touch wood, I dont think I have had a major clanger yet.... cue major clanger on Saturday now!

Had a League Senior Cup fixture on Saturday, player slid in on another, but player ends up dislocating his shoulder, so no magic sponge is going to sort this, also no club physiotherapist / trained person to assist. Cue, opposition centre back who is a 'personal trainer' who says he will help...

Also well done, first OA game will always be a little daunting, hope you enjoyed it!

Love this!!

@haywain I have not got down to Dorking... yet. I did Dorking Wanderers in a pre-season friendly but they were away, but I am on the Combined Counties now, so I am sure I will find my way up there soon, or if the County send me that way for a County Cup fixture. @Ross I will send you a message

Many thanks

Second RA meeting on Monday which will be good, followed by the annual Surrey FA RA Evening on Thursday with special guest Mr Howard Webb MBE. Really looking forward to it! My week, next week is then: Monday - Monthly Referee Society Meeting Tuesday - Charlton v Bolton Wednesday - Studying...

I thought you would all appreciate this. I have closed off this weekend refereeing as I am getting married, however I thought for our cake topper it should really incorporate refereeing as it plays such a big part in my (our life) as its all I ever go on about! This is the final design!!

Nope. I wait in anticipation!

I always get these types of incidents. Once we are back playing, I like to run along side the player who has been moaning the most about it, who believes he is right and calmly advise, If I deem a word and / or action to be a deliberate attempt to distract then I will deal with it, to which I...

Haha I skip out of the door on matchday!

He was a top guy, he is 26 now (I believe thats what he said) but fair play to him. If you work hard and are dedicated you can go far! I'd love to follow in his footsteps!

HAHA I tried to get a Sunday appointment the day after, but she was having none of it!

I got my first three league middles out of the way already, and this weekend I am an assistant on the Combined Counties League. All great experience. Looking forward to it..... then I have a two week break (as I am getting married on the 4/10/14 so need the weekend before to sort things out).

We had our first society meeting of the new season last night. Our guest speaker, also our society member was Football League Referee Charles Breakspear. Very good presentation looking at different scenarios and all round nice guy. It is the Surrey FA Referee Meeting on the 29th October and...

I am likewise going to try my luck on this... I will let you know how I get on and at leasT we will be on the FIFA list.... if only a stationary list... WE'VE MADE IT!
